Kevin Fact 3

After hitting a little depressive two-week road bump in the past month, I have managed to get back on the beaten path.

I tend to lead a more traditional life, being a fan of simple, white, black, and grey. I definitely have admiration for the fancy and the awesome, but if I were to do something or own something, it'd be the "vanilla" version of it. I requested the white iPod, I have the black iPhone, and I am a studying mechanical engineering. My color of choice (not to say, my favorite color) is black.

Similarly, I am a very predictable person. Fixed time for dinner, fixed time for getting out of bed, fixed place to be studying, whatever. Anyone following me for a week can know when and where I'll be for the rest of the semester (for the most part).

Boring? Maybe. Sad? Probably. It's okay though.

(Following Kevin Fact 2, I will now try to avoid any "Haha" in my e-mail and IMs. As a result, apparent sarcasm is on the rise. Look for it, and don't let it hit you on the way out.)

Laying Down the Meds & Coffee

I haven't been myself lately. But that ends today.

After being hopped up on cold medicine for the better part of last week, I am better now. I am also giving up the very little bit of coffee I already drink (started this semester, and on the order of 2 cups a week).

I have found that even these drugs are evil. Quality of life is better without them. Don't do them, and don't get sick.

A Note of Confidence

I haven't missed a single scheduled class so far in this semester. Have you? Been lazy?

Feeding the Cold

I thought that when someone was sick, he'd lose his appetite. Throughout this week, I've been eating a lot, on the order of 6 mini-meals a day. I have even had a McChicken sandwich at McDonald's, and anyone who knows me knows that McDonald's and I don't get along. I think I've even eaten a paper shred of the pepper packet; I cannot find it now.

Perfect Drug for the Job?

I took some Advil last night.

On the box, it says that it relieves runny nose, nasal congection, sneezing, itchy and watery eyes, headache, sinus pressure, and fever.

This was perhaps the first time when the OTC drug actually covers the symptoms I been showing exactly; I had all of those problems at the same time. I can't say that it worked particularly well, but it was slightly comforting to know that something in the pill was supposedly helping me. I was too much out of it, so I slept immediately after dinner.
